Started by William Randolph Hearst and Joseph Pulitzer, the "Yellow press" is a non-informative newspaper. Coined by the American government, Yellow journalism is a newspaper that presents very little legitimate news. Instead, it uses eye-catching headlines to sell more newspapers. They sold millions of papers.

Answer:

Yellow press or amarillista press is a type of journalism that presents news with striking, scandalous or exaggerated headlines to try to increase their sales, although in general these news do not have any evidence (or scarce) and without a well-defined investigation. This type of sensationalist press includes headlines of catastrophes and a large number of photographs with detailed information about accidents, crimes, adulteries and political entanglements. In the case of graphics or television, it is characterized by using shocking music, extremely saturated colors, mainly red and having your information disorganized.

The term originated during the "journalistic battle" between the newspaper New York World, by Joseph Pulitzer, and the New York Journal, by William Randolph Hearst, from 1895 to 1898, and can be referred to specifically at that time. Both newspapers were accused, by other more serious publications, of magnifying certain kinds of news to increase sales and pay those involved to get exclusive. The New York Press newspaper coined the term "yellow journalism," in early 1897, to describe the work of both Pulitzer and Hearst. The success of the character The Yellow Kid in both newspapers contributed to this.

Reflect on what you learned in the lesson about the experiences of Jews during the Holocaust. Study the primary sources provided

Answer: Holocaust killed a third of Jews. Jews were persecuted for the anti-Semitic ideas of Nazi Germany. The Jews were imprisoned in concentration camps. The United States and the world have generally not done much for the Jews. The Holocaust had lasting consequences.

Explanation:

Nazi crimes almost exterminated Jews from Europe. During World War II, about six million Jews were systematically killed. The most significant number were casualties in concentration camps stationed throughout Europe. In some parts of the Holocaust, entire Jewish communities were destroyed.

Hitler persecuted Jews for his anti-Semitic views. He considered Jews guilty of the post-World War I state of Germany. Germany, as a defeated country, had to pay substantial war damages and was in a difficult economic situation. Hitler needed a culprit for such a case, and he considered them Jewish. In his book "Mein Kampf" he outlined his anti-Semitic views, which were later included in the official political platform of the National Socialist Party.

The systematic incarceration of Jews began even before the official start of World War II. The first camps were opened in 1933. By the beginning of the War, there were about 25,000 people in these camps, some of them Jewish. By the end of 1945, millions of Jews would be killed in concentration camps. Over a million Jews were killed in Auschwitz alone.

The United States and the world have generally not done much about the Holocaust. Even before the outbreak of the War, one could have hinted at what Hitler was planning on the Jews. Immigration and visa restrictions for foreigners began during President Hoover and continued during Roosevelt. There was no sympathy among the American society itself about the Jews. Also, there have been a number of officials in the government who have supported restrictions on US Dollar Jews. During the First World War, it turned out that journalists were often misreporting about German crimes, so journalists were very careful when it came to reporting on the Holocaust. Germany itself struggled to cover up crimes against Jews. At the time when such news came out, American society did not care much for that information, and they were more focused on other news from the War. America received just over 10,000 Jews during and before World War II.

The experiences of Holocaust survivors are similar. There are many testimonies available by Holocaust survivors. They are critical because they talk about the proportion of the destructive policies of Germany and its allies during the War. These painful experiences have had lasting effects on the victims. Every January 27 marks the day of remembrance of the Holocaust victims, and the world is reminded of the horrors of Hitler's politics during the War.
